Komare doline - Kuk

Access to the starting point:
From the motorway Ljubljana - Koper take the exit Črni Kal. From Črni Kal, continue along the old road towards the sea, and we take it only as far as the next slightly larger crossroads, where we turn left towards Border crossing Sočerga. Follow the road past Kubed to the village of Gračišče, where you turn left at the junction in the direction of Rakitovec, Movraž and Smokvica. From Gračišče, drive for about 800 m, and then you will see markings along the road and an inscription on a rock for Lačno, pointing to the left. Park here in a suitable place along the road. The starting point is about 50 m before the next small crossroads.
The starting point can also be reached from the coast via Prade, Pobegi, Čežarji, and Sveti Anton.

Path description:
From the starting point, follow the marked footpath towards Lačná. The path first crosses a rather overgrown meadow and then joins the wider cart track, which we follow. At the crossroads, follow the signs and cart track turns into a slightly steeper and in several places overgrown mountain path. Higher up, we get some views of the surrounding hills, and the path leads us just a little further on to the ridge of Lačná, where we also step onto the wide cart track.
Follow the track to the right (left Lačna 15 minutes), and it leads us along a quite scenic ridge in a few ascents and descents. A little further on, the path leads us past a natural cave, and just a little further on we arrive at the undistinguished but scenic Top of the Cross.
From Vrh križa we continue along the marked cart track, which turns into lane of a pine forest, ending in a medium-sized clearing. In the middle of the clearing we see a small stone cairn marking an unmarked path to the nearby Krog, and we continue on cart track, which crosses another short lane of the forest, and then passes onto increasingly bare slopes. Here we can see the north-western slopes of the Kuka already gently sloping in front of us, and the path ahead leads us in a gently sloping ascent slightly to the right. Higher up, the path climbs slightly steeper for a short time, then lays down and leads us to the extensive and folded summit slopes of Kuka, where there is also a marked crossroads.
Here we continue in the direction of Kuka, which is only a minute's easy and scenic walk away.
